Keying 'enter' on the attachment tells,. Couldn't execute view command, viewing as text.'. PS : On Fedora, yum install elinks. Elinks. Is a terminal based web browser. :-).

Geek at Large: Review: Gray Hat Python
http://geekatlarge.blogspot.com/2009/06/review-gray-hat-python.html
A blog mostly about running, ruby, photography, books, and any other things that captured my interest. Tuesday, June 23, 2009. Review: Gray Hat Python. 216 pages, a title of 'Gray Hat Python' and a table of contents with subjects such as 'design and program your own debugger', 'learn how to fuzz windows drivers', 'create powerful fuzzers from scratch', DLL injection, hooking, malware analysis. My first impression was that it must be really niche, hardcore and not for me. First impressions are often wrong.

New gear and new books! 1) take it easy, take some extra rest! 2) whilst taking a shower after a run, run some cold water on the legs for some time. After that run some hot water on them.
